2001 Map of Creede

About this map

Creede and the neighboring settlement of North Creede anchor this mountain landscape within the Rio Grande National Forest. The map documents a town deeply tied to its industrial heritage, with the presence of Bulldog Tunnel, Resurrection Tunnel, and the Monon Mine illustrating the extensive silver mining infrastructure that shaped the region. Near the bend of the Rio Grande, the Mineral County Memorial Airport and the historic Wason Ranch highlight the local transition toward modern transportation and traditional ranching. The terrain is marked by prominent landmarks such as Bulldog Mountain and The Snowshoe, while the high-altitude hydrology is defined by Willow Creek and Miners Creek. Genealogists may find value in the location of the local Cem and the Sunnyside (Site), providing a record of human occupation and labor at the start of the twenty-first century.
